*Sound of a walking wagon*

The wagon’s quite large, it’s not an expensive one, but a decent one. It could accommodate 6-7 people inside of it, but currently, there are only Oz inside. Lucky for Oz, the coachman seat has a connecting door with the passenger seats, making it feels like a private space.

“Feels like a personal wagon, heh, I never thought that riding a wagon alone could be this comfortable” Oz muttered to himself.

Together with the sound of a clone appearing, both Reo and Fenrir appeared with their mini form.

“Whoaa, it feels nice!” Fenrir said with her childlike voice, as her voice shakes together with the wagon.

Oz enjoy the feeling of riding a carriage, the wagon’s coachman is an uncle with a thin body, he’s not that talkative so Oz doesn’t chat too much with him. He said that he had become a coachman since he’s young, being a coachman is like flipping a palm for him.

“Master, I want to buy a wagon one day!” Fenrir said enthusiastically.

“Where will you get the money from?” Asked Oz with a sarcasm.

“Of course master will buy it for me, right?” She asked her with a begging face, but her puppy face that looks like a Siberian husky’s cub is very cute.

“I’ll consider it later,” Answered Oz with his eyes closed.

“I’ll also support if you want to buy a carriage, master. It’s comfortable,” Said Reo.

Just like kids that love the shakings from the car, both of the old living spirits are getting excited just by riding a wagon.

(Well, I enjoyed it too, though) (Oz)

(Rather than that, last time, I couldn’t appraise them with my appraisal card, since I already gave both of them their names, I should be able to see their status right? Well, let’s try the most efficient way)

“Fenrir, Reo, come here and step at this at the same time,” Oz instructed them as he summons the appraisal card at his hands.

They obey Oz’s instruction and step at the appraisal card together.

“Appraisal!” Oz said.

Two status board appeared in front of Oz.

(WHOA!)

An unbelievable stats at the status board made Oz’s speechless when he saw them. But he soon remembered something.

“Um… We have the contract thing right? Then could I use your powers or something like that?” Asked Oz with curiosity filled his face.

“You could, master. Actually, we could assist you both with our body and give a copy of our power to your weapon and make it into a legendary weapon simultaneously just like the sword ‘Endless Cold’ before, and you should be able to use our skills, master,” Explained Reo.

“But in the ‘Endless Cold’ sword case, it could only be called as a semi-legendary sword because it only holds 20% of my power. It should be able to become a real legendary sword if it has my full blessings. Do you have a weapon that you want to enhance with our powers, master?” Asked Fenrir.

“Hmm…” Oz contemplates a moment, and soon he remembered the maleficent staff that he loot from the battle with the demons before.

“How about this?” Asked Oz as he summoned the pitch-black maleficent staff.

“A stuff, huh? I thought master will use a sword, it’s quite unexpected,” Said Fenrir.

“Even though I could use a sword, I still recognize myself as a magician,” Oz answered with a shrug.

“So? Could this staff got blessed by both of you?” Asked Oz.

“Well, let’s give it a shot, Fenrir,” Said Reo.

“Okay then!” Answered Fenrir.

Reo and Fenrir gathered and touched the staff with their palm. Faint, an ordinary person will not recognize that a terrifying amount of mana is being transmitted to the maleficent staff.

Oz stares and observes the process with focus and awe, the maleficent staff absorb the tremendous amount of death and ice mana. Slowly, the lights enveloping the staff got brighter and brighter, dazzling Oz’s eyes.

After waiting for several minutes, the process finally finished, and the light enveloping the staff also disappeared, leaving the maleficent staff remaining.

<An enormous amount of death and ice element had absorbed by the [Maleficent Staff] card>

<Evolving the [Maleficent Staff]

<Evolving finished>

<The [Maleficent Staff] Had evolved into the staff possessed by the demon sage at the demon ages [Defiler of the Banished, Ataraxia] [Staff] [Semi-Divine]>

<Congratulations! The host had just acquired the first semi-divine weapon!>

<Special benefits and abilities will be granted to the staff as reward>

(Semi-Divine!?)

Once more, the staff got enveloped by both black and blue dazzling lights, it’s far brighter than before that it makes Oz, Reo, and Fenrir closes their eyes.

“W-what’s happening?” Asked Fenrir, afraid that the occurrence is because of her.

The light slowly disappears, and a staff that had a totally different appearance with the maleficent staff appeared. It had the same black color, but it had a lot of strange ice rune-like designs all over the staff. The staff had also got longer than before, and a terrifying amount of mana could be sensed even from a distance.

[Defiler of the Banished, Ataraxia [Staff] [Transformable] [Semi-Divine]

Fenrir Arken: 10 Skills of the Ice Spirit King

+10,000,000 to all of the wielder stats]

“Bloody hell! It’s a semi-divine weapon!” The one who strangely surprised is Fenrir.

“I-impossible, even if all of the spirit kings enhance a weapon, it’s still impossible even to make a semi-divine weapon!” Reo followed suit.

“Does a semi-divine weapon is that difficult to make?” Asked Oz.

“It’s not just difficult! It’s close to impossible! Only the spirit god could make a semi-divine weapon!” Answered Fenrir with a shout.

“Calm down, well, I don’t know anything about why it became a semi-divine staff, though. Let’s just consider it as a piece of luck,” Oz indifferently said.

“T-to say that getting a semi-divine weapon just a piece of luck that calm, you really are something…” Fenrir muttered in awe.

But the truth is, Oz is the one who felt thrilled the most amongst the three.

(BLOODY HELL! Just equipping it could make someone stats as powerful as the king rank! Moreover, I could now use all 10 skills of the spirit kings and the demonic enslavement skill meant that I could enslave any demon I want, right? GODDAMNIT YES!!!) (Oz)

(Um… Master… It seems that you’ve forgotten that we could hear your inner voices…) (Reo)

(Shit! I forgot!)

Oz turns his head and saw the annoying grin from Fenrir.

“You despicable dog, I won’t be giving you any food,” Oz said, annoyed.

“Huuuh? T-t-t-to threaten me, a spirit king, with food, it’s unfair!” Fenrir rebuked strongly.

“It’s my right to decide, as your master,” Oz answered indifferently.

“Uuuuu, my master is despicable-” When Fenrir’s still protesting to Oz, the wagon suddenly stopped.

“Young man! We’ve arrived in the city of mercenaries, the Redfall!” The voice of the coachman sounded from the front.

Oz took a peek outside, and he saw that it’s still evening, they’ve just traveled for 5 hours, and they should be able to travel to the next city.

“Why are we stopping here, uncle?” Oz asked the coachman as he got out of the wagon and saw that they already arrived in front of an inn.

“Hm? The next city is quite far, young man. We could barely arrive there at night, but we’ll get ambushed by some bandits if we do that, so it’s better to rest here for today,” The coachman leisurely said.

“Ohh, okay then,” Oz agrees.

(I forgot, this is a fantasy world, huh) (Oz)

“We’ll meet again here tomorrow morning, okay young man? There will also be one more young man that going to join us to the capital,” The coachman asked Oz.

“Yes, thanks for the hard work,” Oz thanked the coachman.

“Whoaa, It’s nice to see that there are still youths that have a good manner. It’s nothing, it’s my job, after all,” The coachman said as he left.

“Hm… what a unique city this is…” Oz said as he observes his surroundings, different from the Coldstone city, the people of this city have a lot of trained warriors.

Large buildings that have a lot of people visiting make Oz interested. Holding his staff, Oz went to one of the huge buildings. The people that entered the building are all well-equipped and looks like a mercenary and all of them had awakened their mana cultivation.

“Let’s try to visit that building,” Said Oz to Fenrir and Reo.

(Is this a mercenary guild?) (Oz)

But unexpectedly, before Oz, Fenrir, and Reo arrived at the building, dozens of people with scary faces surround them. Their intentions are unknown, but Oz’s sure that they must not have any good intention in doing this.

“What’s the meaning of this?” Oz asked with a cold voice.

“Oi brat! This is not a place for you a brat to walk with your pets!” One of the mercenaries said with a mocking voice.

“Is that so? Forgive my intrusion, then,” Oz said and turn his body, while Fenrir and Reo with their mini form tried to glare to the mercenaries.

But different from Oz’s expectation, the mercenaries didn’t give him space to leave the place.

“Then what’s the meaning of this?” Oz asked coldly and glares at the mercenaries that blocked his way.

???

The mercenaries got jolted out of surprise when they saw Oz’s terrifying cold glare, even though Oz didn’t emit his bloodlust, his glare is enough to make their legs felt weak.

“Sorry brat! But anyone who came here must pay before they could leave!” The mercenary that seems to be the leader once again said.

Oz just sighs and muttered: “So troublesome,”
